Cet ouvrage présente les savoirs et savoir-faire les plus récents sur la pollution de l'eau en milieu rural et la dynamique de restauration de sa qualité. Les travaux abordés se situent principalement en région d'élevage, dans l'arc atlantique et particulièrement en Bretagne. Quatre thèmes sont développés : - les indicateurs, y compris biologiques, et les méthodologies de suivi des évolutions de la qualité - les outils et techniques innovants pour mieux gérer la fertilisation, la protection des cultures et pour intégrer l'aménagement rural - la modélisation (effet du milieu, des pratiques, des aménagements, scénarios) - la mobilisation des acteurs Ce livre intéressera un large public : scientifiques, agents du développement, agriculteurs, agents de l'administration et des collectivités territoriales.

This book presents a systemic view of the diversity of pressures and impacts produced by climate change and human actions. Erosion of biodiversity by changing ocean chemistry, the intensification of global change raises the problem of the adaptation of living resources. Land uses induce ecological imbalances leading to asphyxiation true coastal ecosystems. More than a billion tons of solid waste must be assimilated by the marine environment and food webs. Radioactive discharges emitted into the atmosphere or into the aquatic environment, raise the question of their future. Sea and Ocean series offers a transversal approach of the ocean system that leads to governance, sustainable resource management and adaptation of societies.

The STICS crop model has been developed since 1996 at INRA in collaboration with other research and technical institutes. The model syntheses, illustrates and concretizes an important part of the French agronomic knowledge as a point of view on the field and cropping systems working. The formalisations of the STICS crop model presented in this book can be considered as references used in the framework of crop sciences. The book arrangement relies on the way the model designs the crop-soil system functioning, each chapter being devoted to a set of important functions such as growth initiation, yield onset, water uptake, transformation of organic matter etc. One chapter deals with the cropping system and long term simulations and the final chapter is about the involvement of the user in terms of option choices and parameterization. If this book is mainly intended for scientists who use the STICS model, it can also be useful for agronomists, crop modellers, students and technicians looking for elementary formalizations of the crop-soil system functioning.

This book provides a simplified description of the procedures to be used to perform an analysis of hydrological data within a multifractal framework. After a review of multifractal theory and the presentation of one model for identifying scale invariance properties, examples of applications to rainfall and discharge time series are given. It will be of interest to teachers and researchers in this field, both nationally and abroad.
